So they banned the original source after finding out that there were illegitimate versions of VLC disguised as the real package?

How did it solve the problem? Don't you think that after they banned the original, there would have been even more illegitimate versions?

Very valid point! They banned all VLC impersonators alongside VLC, I believe. Again - definitely not how you solve the problem. I was simply clarifying what had actually happened.
